The Troy 15U Tournament team bounced back from a loss on Thursday night with a 17-6 win over Eufaula on Friday afternoon in the 15U State Tournament.

Ben Reeves also had a two-run double to bring the score to 12-6. Troy’s final run came around to score when Reeves scored on an error by Eufaula’s short stop.

Nate Braisted scored on a balk call to score a run in the third. By inning’s end Troy totaled three runs to go up 11-0. Kidd smacked a two-run double.

Troy allowed Eufaula to crawl back into the game with three runs in both the third and fourth innings to cut Troy’s lead to 13-6 after four innings.

After a scoreless fifth inning, Troy’s offense got back to work and scored four more runs in the sixth.

Noah Prestwood smacked a two-run single and Jordan followed up with a two-run single of his own to give Troy a commanding 17-6 lead.
